World-renowned for the picturesque marine life that thrives under its turquoise blue waters, Sharm al-Sheikh is a captivating Egyptian Red Sea resort city nestled between Ras Muhammad National Park and the Nabq Protectorate. “Sharm”, as it’s referred to by Egyptians, first appeared on the tourist map in the 1980’s, but back then, it was mostly visited by dive enthusiasts who were captivated by its magnificent coral reefs and virgin beaches.
Fast forward four decades and Sharm al-Sheikh has grown into a full-fledged city with five-star hotels and resorts, restaurants, golf courses, shopping malls, and movie theaters. Its world-class conference facilities have hosted major global conferences and international peace summits, which is why Sharm al-Sheikh is also known as “The City of Peace.”
With an international airport that receives flights from most European countries, Sharm al-Sheikh is an easily accessible beach holiday destination, perfect for both solo adventures and iconic family vacations.
